The complete range of vacuum test chambers developed by ACS can be divided into two categories:
- Altitude Test Chambers reaching depression levels of 100 Pascal (1 mbar), mainly used in the aeronautics field
- Thermal Vacuum Chambers (TVC) which, artificially reproducing the real working conditions of satellites and spacecraft equipment, need to reach pressure values down to 10-8 mbar.
Standard Thermal Vacuum Chambers
Thanks to its recognized know-how and experience ACS has been able to develop a range of standardized Thermal Vacuum Chambers built with high quality components by first class suppliers.
Standard altitude test chambers
ACS altitude chambers are available in standard 150, 500, and 1000 liter capacities. 500 and 1000 l models can be supplied in the ES version for Environmental Stress, with a temperature variation rate of 5°C/min. ACS altitude chambers are equipped with the new all-in-one software MyKratos™./Logo%20MyKratos%20bu.png?width=110&name=Logo%20MyKratos%20bu.png)
